*The bewildering detail of the federal budget makes its presentation in tabular form an exercise in frustration. This table in no way pretends to be definitive. It is offered primarily as a guide to trends. Some
figures have been adjusted for comparability, Comparisons in a horizontal direction~that is, from year to year for any particular line item—are believed to be valid. Figures listed in the appropriations
columns represent, in some cases, a specific congressional appropriation for the particular item concerned; in other cases, the amount an agency plans to allocate to the particular item out of a larger
congressional appropriation,
ft Most of the reduction from the budget request represents a financing conversion for two projects to an annual appropriations basis in licu of the full funding requested.
{+ This
is not the sharp decline it seems. Unobligated funds from last year’s appropriation bring the amount available for obligation in 1968 up te $50 million,
§ Excludes $10.8 million requested for Indian and
overseas dependents’ schools pending enactment of authorizing legislation.
|| Includes some overlap with preceding figures for basic research.
{Excludes Appalachian-area restoration and helium fund.
** This also is not the sharp drop it seems. The additional appropriation requested was passed over without prejudice pending enactment of authorizing legislation.
+7 In addition to appropriations for ARS,
Congress authorized a transfer of $15 million in Section 32 funds in 1968, down from $25 million in 1967.
